Comments on An Analogy for God's Providence

The new heavens and the new earth are a material universe (or at least, that is what seems to be taught in the bible). And being material implies being temporal. (At least, I have no concept of what something material but atemporal would be like.) Furthermore, the language in the bible seems to directly teach that the new heavens and new earth will be temporal (at least, when it says things like “forever and ever” it appears to be indicating an endless duration , not some timeless state).

scratches head

I’m trying to imagine what a temporal heaven, rather than a timeless heaven, would be like. I’m not seeing the attraction of an endless duration…
